Black Friday ~ Cyber Monday SALE


Starting today, I'm offering FREE WORLDWIDE SHIPPING in my Etsy jewelry shop. I am also planning a few added sales each day, from November 27-30, so check back to see what's cooking. These sales will end on Monday night at midnight EST.
Hope to see you there!
Until next time.....

Happy Thanksgiving!


Happy Thanksgiving y'all! I'm sitting here, drinking coffee and reflecting back on my life. It's so nice and dark and quiet and warm. At least for a few minutes. Then I have to get up and get the ball rolling.
I love the holiday season! I love the sights and the sounds. I love the lights and the music. Oh, and I love the food!

I've always followed my dreams and have carved out a pretty damn good life for myself. Even though life hasn't always been easy, life has always been good.

I am thankful for all of y'all out there. We gravitate towards each other for one reason or another. I always look forward to what's going on in your lives and what you have to say. Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving.
Until next time.....

Deck the Halls



Let the decorating begin! I finished my foster holly wreath for the front of the house this weekend. I made it with grapevine and clippings from our foster hollies. We have a plethora of evergreens on our property. They come in handy during the holidays when I start decking the halls. I make wreaths, swags, garlands, mini 'trees' and bouquets with pine, spruce, holly, nandina, cypress, yew and cedar.

I've been preparing my Etsy jewelry shop for the holidays. A week or so ago, I told you that I reduced all of my prices for the holidays. I'm participating in the Black Friday ~ Cyber Monday sale this weekend. I'll be offering free shipping. And for twitter followers and facebook fans there will be unannounced, and still unknown to me, specials. You may want to start following me there to get in on the action.

Here's to a great week for those of us that sell on Etsy and elsewhere. And here's to a peaceful holiday season.

Until next time.....

Shadow Shot Sunday


Here we were, in the middle of the woods, with no color in sight. Except for our chainsaw equipment and weed eater string. Along comes a butterfly to brighten up our day.

Have a great week!

Shadow Shot Sunday

I was working on the computer the other day, along with staining the siding of our house. I looked up and across the hall and what did I see? A perfect shot for Shadow Shot Sunday! This is John, up on a ladder, staining the second story section. I'm in charge of the lower half.

Have a great week!

Citrine Hues ala Vintage Glass


November's celebrated birthstone on Etsy is citrine. What a sunny gem for an Autumn month that is already bursting with color. I have a few pieces in my shop to warm the hearts of vintage lovers. All of them are one of a kinds, so when they're gone, they're gone. Click on the jewels above to get to my shop.
You can also find a growing variety of shades of citrine by visiting the Gift Guides on Etsy.
Until next time.....

Crystal Lake in November


We just got back from a quick 3 day trip up to Crystal Lake. I love camping in Autumn. And I really love camping when the moon is just about full. It seems like the night critters come out in full force then. We heard one of the owls, but never heard the other one call back. We heard coyotes, lots of coyotes. One of the packs sounded like it was real close. And we also heard, what I thought was probably a bobcat.
We got a lot of work done up there and came back tired, sore and happy.

See the butterfly in the collage? It showed up in the middle of the woods when we were cutting wood. No flowers or anything with color in sight; except for our weed eater string. I hope it found something to eat along the way.
Until next time.....
